Fastener Entry Boot Templet Step 2 Remove Entry Boot Templet from the sump wall and then drill a hole using the correct size hole saw (41/4" Saw for 2" and 3"; 51/4" Saw for 4"). Step 3 Install the rubber boot from outside the sump by inserting the studs through the bolt holes. From the inside of the sump, install the compression ring over the studs and install nuts by hand. Step 4 Using a standard hand nut driver, tighten all the nuts evenly and firmly. to prevent deforming boots, do not over tighten nuts. If a torque wrench is used, the setting should be 60 in. lbs. Step 5 Insert the appropriate sized pipe into the flexible boot from out- side of the sump. After the pipe has been positioned, install the band clamp around the boot and tighten to 60 in. lbs. Angled Entries The flexible entry boot is flex- ible enough to permit angled pipe entries up to 300 angle. Angles greater than 30' could prevent the boot from sealing around the pipe. 30° Max
